They had their own printing company, so I think it was probably done in house , as I mentioned in the intro they became known as Hilderscapes, I wrongly assumed they were referring to Rowland work but it’s the combination work with Edith that started  it . I don’t know and haven’t real researched how they worked on the combination paintings , but no matter how they were achieved the end results are stunning.
Rowland started off with his landscape and then simply passed each one over to Edith to do her bit! I wasn’t aware that they had their own printing company… I’ve never read that anywhere! Heron Press was the printers widely used for much of Rowland’s work, including his annual calendar, featuring 12 exquisite examples of his work - I still have quite a few stored away.
An extract from an article on the Hilders which mentions the family printing business set up by Rowland and Edith.
